FIFTEENTH INSTALMENT
SYNOPSIS
Jocelyn Harlowe, raised in •a
French convent, at the age of
eighteen, joins her mother, Mar-
cella, in New York.' Worried
• about her safety, because she is
- unfamiliar with the modern world
and has developed into a beauti-
ful woman, her mother's first wish
is to get her safely married. At-
tending her first ball, Jocelyn
'meets ,Felix Kent, rich, handsome
and nineteen yearss older than
herself. Encouraged by her
mother, She and Felix quickly be-
come engaged. Alone in her
apartment one night, a cripple,
Nick Sandal, enters :by the fire -
escape, confides in her that he
is her father and that her real
name is Lynda Sandal. ewer -
tin about whether she wants to
get married so quickly, Jocelyn
goes to talk things over with her
mysterious m father.- There she
meets Jock Ayleward, a gambler,
who gradually interests her more
and more. When she mentions
the name Felix K nt, he tells his
story of how he Was a mining en-
gineer, worked under Kent and
was sent to jail for making whptt
was adjudged a false affidavit.
One night Jocelyn goes- to a par-
ty with her father and Jock. Sud-
• denly, during a dame, Jock rush.
es her out and says he is going
to take her home, thus saving
heir from seeing Felix there danc-
ing with a gangster's 'girl. Alone
with Jock, he kisses her passion-
atelyt_.during r1 mo pent,_they had
alone, she says that she will
search Kent's safe for 'papers on
the case and won't marry him if
she finds what Jock says is trite.
When asleep one night, Jo!ecyn's
mother wakes her and says that
her jewels have been stolen and
Jocelyn suspects Jock or her
father. She goes to see her father
who seems to know nothing about
the jewels. She meets Jock there
who kisses her against her will,
But she 'tells him she will search
the safe, manages to get the com-
bination from Felix, goes to his
office in the middle of the night,
ends the papers Sowing Jock's
story is true, tosses them out the
window 'to Jock, is captured and
taken- to a room to await Felix's
appearance,
Then Felix Kent, staring down at
her, turned scarlet and his eyes chang-
ed. He turned to 'one of the men.
"Here, let me alone with her a
moment. I thin -k I've seen- the girl
before. There's more in this . .
This is hardly a police matter. I'll ex-
plain. Just let me have her for an
instant and I think I cam find out all
I want to k•now."
The 'men., curious, grimly amused
and, cynical, went willingly away.
He moved close to Jodetiyn; 'caught
her wzists in his two .hands and
drew them up to his breast, pulling
Ther nearer to him in a gesture that
was passionately possessive, furious,
masterful.
"Now," he said between his teeth,
"if you haven't gone mad educe I
left you yesterdays --at your own re
quest, as I seem to remember—or if
I have not myself lost the use of my
wits, you will please explain this
preposterous joke. And you will
please return the papers you took
from my safe. I see now why you
coaxed that combination out of me.
At least I begin bo see why."
"Let me go, Felix," said, Lynda
Sandal. Her voice was resonant.
"I'm not a chili). Nor any property
of yours. fill not be held like this,, -
bullied' and ,threatened."
"Do you know what you've done?
Do you even -begin to know what you
are up against? You, Jocelyn Mar-
lowe, have been caught in the act of
house-brearking• and theft. You are in
the hands 'of the law. Do you 'mow
anything about its, power?"
"More than I did."
"You know very little as yet. Lis -
corning my wife tomorrow. I'Ii tak
you out Of this and carry you -home
and when you've. told and that trust
of your ugly add wicket- escapade

sleep and then you • wirll put on you

He went out, locking they door.
He came, mopping his bitten' Ii

"Look here, Cr'acken," he said
"This isn't at all tine sort of case i

silly deitutantes. She's been put up
•to a wild sort of prank by some o
her friends and: she's had her lesson.
"I want to bush this thing up and
withdrew the charge and 'take her
home with me now. The pour 1Qid is
all in."
"About them papers, Mr. Kent?"
Kent's laughter was difficult but it
still came a short, hard laughter.
"That' -s, all right. I'lrl get them
back. The little devil wanted to give
me a scare. When. I lay hands on
tire boys that helped her +, "
His fist or..,the desk top Whitened.
The police officer who "looked down
at it whistled.
How different a creature she looked
—crouched in the corner of the soft
back seat, from the glowing Jocelyn
Marlowe. Felix pulled down his
shades.
"As -soon as you are back at the
apturtme•nt, Jocelyn, and have had
some strong coffee, I mean- to hear
every word of the truth. I will have
those papers,"
As they roved silently up the
city's crowded avenues, Felix dad
not waste his leisure. He thought.
"U-h•um . the- Rappel pars+on's
son . . . Jock Ay1eward.
"Where and ,how -did you meet
him?" he asked quietly.
She. said, "I met him in my
father's rooms."
"Your—father's?"
"Nick Sandal, He is- in this city

"Did your mother know?"
"I never told her: I was not per

"Not permitted?" He laughed. "Who
in ,heaven's name, had the right to
permit you to betray?"
"I love Nick, Felix."
"Have you ever, may I also ask,
loved me?"
"That is a gttestion you have never
yet troubled VI ask me, Felix,"
"I hardly thought you would be

He let go his hold on her arm anti

"You've been consulting your fat -h-
er?"
"I've been to see him at night. I
would climb down the fire escape
from my bedroom window,"
"You met Sark Ayl'ew-and in your
father's room?"
"Yes. I did not like him. I did not
believe in him. I believed in you."
And at that, remembering how

art, her heart broke and he began

"Now," be said, breathing hard
and speaking through his 'teeth, "you
will give me the whereabouts of this
gentleman whom you did not believe
nor like nor trust but for whose sake
you made a spectacle of yourself in
the New York streets at ei.gbt and
dried and dreesed like a man- and stole

She obudd not answer. For the
time being she was- incapable of an-

familiar entrance of tire • apartment

f At this point Felix realized, th

might bring on some- frightfulta.strophe, -physical or mental.
He spoke soothingly. "You mor

phone. He's sort of urgent, ma'am.'
"Yes. Yes. He told me he had

me. I'll speak to him over my MOM

The murmur of this exchange o
confidence between her mother a

Weak -'and sick, she hurried, how
ever, out of Nick's clothes and hi

door and locket it.
Rapidly and surely she ,,got herself
into the queer little 'symbolic costume
and ran her fingers tla rough her
hair,
She went tato the living -room
and -stood there facing. Felix Kent.
"Now," she announced clearly
and even., with pity for him in her
cool voice and eyes, "I will tell you
everything, Felix. I am not afraid of
you any more at all."
Felix, after a long sharing look,
said: "What in heavens, name are
you pretending to be now?"
"I am not pretending. But I am
not Marcella liarlowe's daughter,

"I love that man. I want him to

"You choose me for your enemy

Marcella came into the room. She
started toward Lynda with a quick
cry of relief, then checked herself,

• Watch in your own home how The Huron Expositor—or any
other good newspaper—is read. Possibly the weather for the day
or the morrow is a first matter of interest; and perhaps the main
headlines on the front page are scanned; but it is a pretty safe
thing to say that women readers will turn very early to the ad-
vertisements of local firms which , advertise fashion items, food
items, and other offerings related intimately to current needs
and desires.
" • Every woman knows what she wants—not perhaps in the
precise form of color, or variety or manner, but certainly in the
main matters of her desire or need. This applies to clothes, hats,
shoes;: food items, • beauty preparations and many- items pertain-
ing to home furnishing. And so women are eternally on the
watch for information—and for temptation! They are swiftly
perceptive of the advertisements which present and propose the
things of their desire or need. And obviously it is those retailers
who advertise to them who stand the best chance of their custom.
• It is the same in the case of men. Few men buy impulsively.
When they leave home each day for their place of employment,
it is not just to get rid of their money. What 'they buy is mainly
something whose purchase has been planned—clothes or other
forms of apparel, hardware items, motoring sundries, shaving
and other bathroom needs, plants, books, and so on. Men, like
women, have been reading advertisements in line with their
ripening desires and intentions, and of course they go in larg-
est numbers, to those retailers who have been informing them
and soliciting their custom.
• All of us, instinctively, go where the light is, not where the
darkness is. Advertisements are light, and so they attract the
buyers to those stores which they illumine.
• The way to get 'business- is to ask for it. Can the truth of
this statement be successfully disputed? And , here is another
equally true statement: The public buys) from those who invite
